1: Features and Capabilities of the SGI 10-Gbit Ethernet Network Adapter
Features
The adapter includes the following features:
• Full-duplex Gigabit Ethernet interface as defined in the IEEE P802.3ae approved
standard
• Jumbo frame support (up to 9600 bytes)
• 16 DMA channels (8 for reading, 8 for writing)
• Single LC fiber connection
• Support for PCI 64-bit 66-MHz and PCIX 66/100/133-MHz
• Universal dual-voltage signaling (3.3 V and 5 V)
• Compliance with PCI Local Bus Specification (Revision 2.3) and PCI-X Addendum
to the PCI Local Bus Specification (Revision 1.0a) standards
• Optical cabling 850–nm (
10GBASE-SR
)
Cabling
The adapter is an LC connector and uses a
10GBASE-SR
transceiver at 850–nm. It is
connected to the network using a multimode fiber (MMF) cable of 50-micron. The
cable (which is not included in the shipment) must have a quality in the range from
400-MHz * km to 2000-MHz * km, depending on its length, as shown in Table 1-1.
